Monroe considers itself a family, and not just a school. The way everyone treat each other, show our scholars the value of family.

Last Friday morning was the full example of family values. A man left 16 helpless puppies outside the school main entrance in a grocery cart wrapped in a blanket that were about 6 weeks old and walked away, because he could not afford to feed them.

For these puppies it had to be a very scary and lonely experience being taken from the only security they knew, which was their mom. The puppies were found crying, they had no shelter to keep them warm and were hungry and helpless.

Despite the circumstance, these puppies knew family bonding and security; they covered each other with their little bodies and waited not knowing how their lives would turn out. These puppies were like newborn babies and they needed help nonetheless God knew, that Monroe had a special bond there.

God knew the Monroe family would take good care of them.  After arriving and seeing the helpless puppies, the Monroe family stepped up and did what families do. The scholars stepped in and helped the staff care for the puppies; the puppies received a lot of love and support.

Monroe staff and students started making phone calls to rescue facilities to get the puppies a good home. Some of the scholars called their parents and they took a puppy. One of Monroe’s family members took two. Monroe’s family values are strong, and they worked together as a team making sure those 16 puppies received what they deserved, a good home. It taught the scholars how to help in the time of need.

The Tulsa community thanks Monroe Demonstration Academy, for their warm hearts and love.
